Too fast to follow correctly!
@CringeOMusic

@intrinsic5
Thank you very much, so grateful 😊
@doxyen1709
Thank you so much
@magatsu82
Incredibly difficult to follow even pausing, stupidly fast
@Viflik1
Thankyou so much this Video was very helpful ✨
@nemz1up444
way too complicated and fast for a beginner to follow. Should've been slower and easier to follow and understand in my opinion
@jackedkerouac4414
Great tutorial. Only thing I wish you did was add a steel finish to it with fine lines
@Nick-gr2uc
this goes way too fast.
@apnamananytlive2066
sir do u can just give me the psd template i will just change the text
@thanhhuong393
Thank you!
@infotech9027
Good Effort.
@hollyrivney3638
This assumes a familiarity with PS that is beyond beginner level.
@vochiphong2664
thanks! love the look
@artsparadisopracticaleduca4378
Really great tutorial! Please slow down when you're doing the settings so that we can follow :). Thanks again for taking the time to make this video!
@nishanthds2480
thanx a lot
@Maveric
GREAT tutorial! But you don't have to keep clicking in and out of the Layer Style window. That whole left side is functional. Just click on what you want from within the window. Photoshop treats it the same without having to do that.
@endlessart69
Thank you very much, only if you could go slowly
@rgarlinyc
Great final effect, thanks a lot MZ! (p.s. not sure if your "Assets Used in this Video" link is correct..)
